Take a Breath and Jump

Don’t you ever wonder

What it would be like

To be something greater—

To be as great

As you could have been

Had you tried—

Had you been given the chance?

 

Don’t you ever wonder

If you deserve more

Than this too-small town

And these too-familiar faces

And that girl of yours

Who will never give you

The entirety of her heart?

 

Don’t you ever wonder

How great it would be

To do what you desire,

Whatever it may be,

With me at your side—

Loving you more truly

Than anything you’ve known?

 

Such a simple life

For an extraordinary person

Like you to live,

But an extraordinary life

Could be lived so simply

As long as you take a breath

And jump in.
